The Words and Wisdom of Canada's Gordon Edwards, PhD

Dr. Gordon Edwards is Canada's foremost nuclear critic. He is a prolific writer, speaker and professor. He is also the founder and president of the Canadian Coalition for Nuclear Responsibility (CCNR). His writings and speech texts are available all over the web. He's very generous in letting people quote him and his works.

This is a nice description of Dr. Edwards and his mission:

From this site is this quote of Dr. Edwards', one that I believe needs to be re-read every day until it becomes second nature:

»Examine each nuclear problem directly, without fear or denial – because you cannot solve a pro­blem until you understand it. Work to expose the cult of the expert by demystifying nuclear technology. Give real meaning to numbers by using the language of common sense. Ensure that information gets into the public record in a compre­hensible form so that it can have a lasting impact. And cooperate with all interested parties because the essence of activism is interaction – one thing invariably leads to another«.
